Comics In Motion

Comics in Motion is now a Humble Bundle Partner.

This week, Tony is starting his new show HIDDEN GEMS where he spends 20-30 minutes doing a spoiler free look at a comic that didn’t do very well, but that he thinks should get some love.

In 1977, NASA inexplicably sent four hamsters into space to investigate a strange mass of radioactive gelatin that was hovering over the Earth.

Hello there! This release is a special episode where Dave, Mike & Megan have a discussion on the newest animated Star Wars show, the spiritual successor to The Clone Wars; The Bad Batch!

Be sure to check out Mike’s weekly SW show; Star Wars: Comics In Canon, new episodes are out every Saturday and in yesterday’s episode (54), he deep-dives into the Kanan Jarrus comics which contradict some events shown in The Bad Batch (in more detail than what was discussed in this episode).

Plus hear how far clones will go to complete order 66 and Mike reads out the warning message Obi-Wan sets up to warn Jedi of order 66 (as seen in Revenge Of The Sith)!
